Trusted by thousands of drivers
4.9/5 across 50,000+ verified reviews. Here's what travelers are saying after they actually used the coverage.
Counter agent quoted me $42/day. I bought Voyager Complete on my phone for less than half that, in line. Showed the certificate, drove off. That simple.
I rent cars 30+ times a year for work. Voyager is the only policy I trust to actually pay out without three weeks of phone tag. Bookmarked on every device.
Coverage Terms and
Refund Policy
Full Refund Before Rental Start Date
Select a start date that aligns with your rental reservation. Cancel before the scheduled start date for a full refund. A refund requested after midnight in the time zone of your selected rental state makes the first 24 hours non-refundable.
Delayed Car Pickup
If you buy coverage but pick up the vehicle later, you remain eligible for a refund if cancellation occurs before the rental start date in your agreement. If you keep the coverage, the first 24 hours begin at the start time on the rental agreement you sign at the counter.
Early Vehicle Return
Return early, and unused coverage days that follow the return date are refundable, less a 3.5% merchant processing fee. The return date itself is not refunded. Submit proof of early return by email, including the rental contract and refund receipt from the rental company.
